Question: What are the properties of the Gel Bead-in-Emulsion (GEMs)?
Answer: Each GEM generated in the Single Cell or Single Cell V(D)J assay is approximately 130 um in diameter and the volume is approximately 1 nanoliter. There are approximately 80,000-100,000 total GEMs recovered after running the Single Cell A Chip in the Chromium Controller, and ~1-10% of GEMs contain cells depending on the total number of cells loaded.
